Crystals of this type include the close-packed silica formations that give rise to opal. These structures destabilize at voltages under the zeta potential in processes called coagulation and flocculation. Some of these structures scatter light in the Tyndall effect. A type of this structure exemplified by milk and mayonnaise is called an emulsion. For 10 points, name these stages intermediate between suspensions and solutions, where a dispersed phase is spread evenly throughout another.
